Dying Light: The Beast may be a gritty zombie survival simulator filled with gore and horror, but it turns out this new entry was inspired by none other than Pac-Man for one of its mechanics.
At Summer Game Fest 2025 we learned that Dying Light: The Beast is launching on August 22, almost a year after it was unveiled at Gamescom Opening Night Live in 2024. During that Gamescom demo last year, we were reintroduced to Kyle Crane, who has just returned from a lovely little getaway in which he was held captive and experimented on for over a decade. As a result of this, he now has access to a "beast mode," which turns him into a near-unstoppable force who punches zombies and throws whatever he finds lying about.
